Yes, texture was fine. Maybe these should be reserved for when I have a cold and can’t taste anything.

I had these a few years ago. I liked them because they were soft.

Give me Gummi Life Savers any day and I’ll be happy. I enjoy the Gummi Bear shapes nonetheless.

Wow, I didn’t know that the company Haribo was the pioneer of gummy candies, specifically gummy bears. And I have to agree the name Haribo sounds a little Asian to me; it sounds like Filipino LOL.

I try them and didn’t like the taste. Prefer the other gummy bears more.

i much prefer the haribo version, and have only sampled the metallic bears, but not the swirls… i am sure you could suggest algae, musk, and some other flavors to archie mcphee and they could center the flavors around what actual bears smell like. salmon anyone?

The Black Forest gummi bears are my all time favorites. I’ve never tried any flavor other than the regular ones, but those do taste of actual fruit juice. And they don’t taste like chemicals, like the haribo ones. The Black Forest ones are soooo good. I always get them at Walgreen’s.
